Image clue in hunt for resort hotel burglar

Police are appealing for help to identify this man who has evaded capture for weeks, after exhausting all other lines of inquiry.

CCTV footage from the Alexandra Hotel, on Albert Road, appears to show him stealing cash from the till at around 10.15pm on October 2. PC Victoria Gatenby, of Blackpool Police, said a member of staff tried to stop the suspect (pictured), thought to have a tattoo on his neck, when she saw him.

She said: “He struggled with her before slamming her wrist in the door – she let go of him and he ran from the hotel.”
